How exactly is it stupid to checkout one helper module vs checking out 15 translations, english and doc-base, and making sure everything is in the correct places? Everysingle person needs to do this (granted, most only 3modules), and by definition thats what svn:externals where aimed to fix. I see no reason why we can't simplify checkouts, and I can't see how that can possible be stupid. -Hannes
